Hidden away on a breathtaking 20-acre expanse of Bradbury, 56 Gurr Road is a living, breathing sanctuary where design, sustainability, and landscape converge beautifully.
Crafted in 1993 and guided by passive design principles, this hillside residence was decades ahead of its time. Northern light floods the interiors, cooling breezes circulate naturally, and robust sprayed-concrete construction ensures comfort and longevity all year round.
Inside, the home opens in a natural rhythm. Slate floors ground the interiors, expansive picture windows frame cinematic views, and every turn invites a dialogue between inside and out.
The heart of the home - a vast lounge anchored by a slow-combustion fire - sets the tone for gatherings that stretch through the seasons. A connected kitchen and dining zone flows in quiet continuity, while a second living area offers more space to spread out.
An oversized main bedroom suite delivers its own secluded haven, complete with built-in robes and ensuite, while two further bedrooms and a family bathroom form their own quiet wing, ensuring a footprint that evolves with you.
Step outside and the connection to nature only deepens. Tiered stone gardens fall away into the valley, an entertaining area is ready for any occasion alfresco, and a rooftop terrace crowns it all - a vantage point made for sunsets and stillness.
Practicalities are equally well considered, with return driveway and double garage, solar panels, rainwater storage, a fire-hose system, all ensuring ease and security.
Beyond the immediate homestead, the land tells its own story of regeneration, stewardship, and respect. Years of care, supported by the Natural Resources Management Board, have revived a thriving ecosystem that hums with birdlife and native flora. Camp-outs, firelit dinners, long-table lunches, and celebrations that spill into the night, all without leaving home it's an enviable canvas for a life well lived.
Bordering Scott Creek Conservation Park, this is one of the rarest opportunities in the Adelaide Hills a chance to exist amongst nature without compromising on modern comfort or connection. With Stirling, Heathfield, and Mylor are just minutes down the road, you're close to unlimited trails, wineries, cafés and amenities. Zoning for Heathfield High and Mylor Primary makes the school run a breeze, while you're only ever 30 minutes from the CBD.
Settle in, slow down this what home should feel like.
